Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

4 heat packs in a box DEAD SNAKES whos to blame
I got a box of 3 cb emeralds in the mail today fed ex. My shop does not open untill noon, but of course they tried to ship prior to that. My temps locally are 60 degrees. Once I had the tracking info (not supplied by shipper) I sent out to get the box. I was able to get the box at 3:30 today (same day, just a few hours late)
I have a temp gun, I was able to read temps as high as 112 degrees. A inch or two away from packs, I temped as high as 96. Box ambient with lid cracked was 88.
Who fault?

First thing I do when I ship is go to weather.com and check my weather, weather on the reciever's side and weather in the center of the country to see if their will be delays at the hub. From that data I plan dates and how to pack.

Well here is the problem
They were shipped from Florida
They were shipped by one of the biggest names in the business.
I have a store to supply, and need suppliers, so I dont want to burn bridges
The supplier claims that is standard shipping, and the delay caused the deaths
"We put the same amout of heat packs in every other box (44) that went out yesterday, The delay is no doubt the very reason they died... So what do you want to figure on it?"
Direct quote from shipper
Im so done with this crap its not funny. I sent out 25 very healthy dragons for theese snakes. Had they arrived dead, you can bet your ass I wouldnt have gotten anything.

If you and the shipper can not come to a MUTUALLY ACCEPTABLE resolution to this put his name here. Hopefully if they are a reputable person there will be no real problems resolving it.
